If you follow Catholic League football, Saturday night was one to remember. St. Augustine beat two-time defending Division I Select champ Edna Karr 52-14 at in front of more than 18,000 fans. The Purple Knights are 9-0, and FOX 8 has them No. 1 in the Division I Select power rankings, with Karr (8-1) at No. 2.

Junior quarterback Jaelle Noble threw five touchdown passes and ran for two scores. Freshman safety Louis Brown III intercepted three passes, including a 99-yard return for a touchdown that helped build a 33-8 halftime lead. Karr scored first on a blocked punt, and Noble's late third-quarter touchdown run triggered a running clock.

“We just made a statement to the whole state of Louisiana that we're coming, and we ain't going nowhere.”

The Wrap

New Orleans knows how to send things off with a second line, and that includes beloved pets. On Sunday, Nov. 1, animal lovers rolled through the French Quarter in the second annual Pet Memorial Parade, raising money for local animal shelters and rescues. Alyse Guidroz posed for a photo afterward in a cape made from photos of her dog. Good dogs, good send-off.
